music is back in my ears

I got a small mention in the mainstream press. Yee-hah! Quite small, but I'll take it.
It's an article about art on Post-it notes in the Seattle PI online.
They found me through this post on C-Monster, one of my favourite art blogs. If you wanna know what's going down in the art world, add C-Monster to your RSS pronto.

If you are in the Victoria area tonight, be sure to make it to the opening of Abracadabra, an art show and book launch. It features over 30 artists (including me), mostly from the area. The full colour book is really well put together, and centers around the theme of magic and metaphysics.

Show info:
Opening Friday July 18 - 7pm (with music by Dubtet)
Open for viewing July 19-21 10am - 6pm
Closing Monday July 21 - 7pm (featuring a magic show by the Great Giffoni & musical guests)

Admission Opening & Closing Nights: $7/ $20 with book
Daily Viewing Free Admission

Where: The Sunset Room, 1810 Store St. (behind Value Village)

Get the full details here.

 
(I'll post photos from inside the book soon.)

i love zachary quinto. i love sylar on heroes. bad guy that cuts your head open and takes your powers from your brains and what not? i love braaaains. yeah, he's hot. i never was a big star trek fan. i watched the next generation and some deep space nine when i was little. i think my dad watched the movies when they came on tv, and i'd get suckered into it. the main reason i watched was because i was up late, all my favorite shows came on in the day (except fraggle rock), and we had limited channels.

but you know who i love, besides zachary quinto? i love j.j. abrams. lovelovelove. less than three, even. and the idea of him making star trek all awesome and shit? i'm down, home slice. especially when you make zachary quinto into spock!

mmm. sylar vulcan.

i think "home slice" deserves a comeback. agree? disagree?

i miss it.

in other news....

the dark knight tomorrow (not really willing to brace the crowds tonight, although i might change my mind once i get home and decide that friday night is really boring and i drank last night, and blockbuster has like, 2 movies i want to see, and the trip down the street in after-work traffic just to pick up said movies doesn't feel worth it)...

trying to keep my boyfriend from binge drinking since his unemployment money still hasn't shown up, and i can't afford for him to shove as much booze down his throat as he'd normally enjoy. also, he starts school on september 5th, and instead of "living it up" until school starts, i think now would be a good time to practice normal, human drinking habits. and study, too, cause he sucks hard at algebra (i schooled him on those consecutive integer word problems last night, sick burn!).

i want to dye my hair. real bad. and for once, i don't want it bleached out or black. i want it a honey-dirty blonde. closer to my natural color, but a little lighter. it's an experiment. it will happen soon. it has to. i need to do that rebellious girl thing that we do when life is sucking our souls out and we need a change. don't judge me.

i discovered the greatest homemade sandwich, or rediscovered, rather: wheat kaiser roll (found these at the store that aren't too bready) toasted in the oven with pepper jack or muenster, turkey, red onion, lettuce, honey mustard. this is basically the sandwich i get at subway (with pepper jack obv., cos they aren't fancy enough for muenster) all the time. yum yum yum. and healthy, too!

bought salmon yesterday, and some spicy asian marinade (still iffy on it. i probably should just use my teriyaki and sriracha instead)..got some zucchini and rice. delicious dinner. also bought stuff for turkey burgers. i love turkey. i could eat turkey every day. and chicken. and steak. i love meat, okay? leave your pervert comments after the beep.

it's friday, bitches!

Is awesome! I miss Heath Ledger. No one can live up to his portrayal. It really was a great movie. I don't want to elborate, so I'm just saying I liked it a lot.

Running around Raleigh with Tom and taking pics. He is allowing me to play with his big flash. What a differance.

Uh huh those are trash cans
